Description1947-2022, 75th anniversaryScrooge McDuck, a Scottish-American anthropomorphic Pekin duck created by Carl Barks for the Disney comic books, first appeared in the story "Christmas on Bear Mountain", published in December of 1947 (Four Color #178). Living in Duckburg, Calisota, in his own "Money Bin" placed on Killmule Hill, he's Donald Duck's maternal uncle, as well as Huey's, Dewey's, and Louie's grand-uncle. The richest duck in the world, he was initially characterized as a greedy miser and antihero, but in later appearances, he has often been portrayed as a thrifty hero, adventurer, and explorer. He's, without a doubt, my favorite Disney character. My ideal Scrooge McDuck story would be written by Carl Barks and illustrated by one of the Italian Disney artists I love! *** This is the cover of Topolino 3447 inspired by the story "Zio Paperone in: freddo, neve e pagine stampate" written and illustrated by Mastantuono himself that is part of his hilarious series "Papersera News presenta" (Papersera, Duckburg Chronicle in English, is the name of the newspaper owned by Scrooge that sees Donald and Fethry as low-cost journalists). Such a beautiful composition and exquisite line work by Mastantuono. Please also check the additional images for the published cover, digitally colored. The same piece has been slightly edited (removing Donald and Fethry) to be used as the cover of the "Blue Peaks Valley" volume that reprints the series, also by Mastantuono, related to the early days of Scrooge as editor/publisher of a newspaper. Please also check the other covers I own related to the "Papersera News presenta": - Topolino Extra #8 - Papersera News cover - Topolino #3493 cover Huge thanks to Corrado!!!
